Allan-Herndon-Dudley syndrome (AHDS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that manifests as intellectual disability and motor developmental delay. Thyroid hormone transporter dysfunction due to SLC16A2 mutation is the underlying cause of this disorder. We identified a novel (P537del) and a recurrent (A150V) SLC16A2 mutation in Japanese AHDS patients from two different families. A150V co-segregated with S33P. Both patients showed similar clinical features including severe neurological features and delayed myelination. Thyroid function showed a common finding of elevated T3 levels. No clear genotype-phenotype correlation was observed in patients with SLC16A2 alterations.
艾伦-赫恩登-达德利综合征(AHDS)是一种神经发育障碍,表现为智力残疾和运动发育迟缓。SLC16A2突变导致的甲状腺激素转运体功能障碍是该疾病的根本原因。我们在来自两个不同家族的日本AHDS患者中鉴定出一种新的(P537del)和一种复发性的(A150V)SLC16A2突变。A150V与S33P共分离。两名患者均表现出相似的临床特征,包括严重的神经学特征和髓鞘形成延迟。甲状腺功能表现出T3水平升高这一常见发现。在SLC16A2改变的患者中未观察到明确的基因型-表型相关性。
